Prabhu Deva has made three films in Hindi and all of them have been remakes. Two of his films, &quot;Wanted&quot; (remake of Telugu film &quot;Pokiri&quot;) and &quot;Rowdy Rathore&quot; (remake of Telugu film &quot;Vikramarkudu&quot;) had names like Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar.u00a0 <img alt="Prabhu Deva" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/jul/Prabhu-Deva_1.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 369px;" /> &quot;The remakes of south films are getting highlighted now because of big stars here. As big Bollywood heroes are doing these films, this space (of remakes) is getting established further,&quot; Prabhu said at an event here. With his third and recent directorial venture &quot;Ramaiya Vastavaiya&quot; (again a remake of Telugu film &quot;Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana&quot;), Prabhu launched newcomer Girish Kumar opposite Shruti Hassan. Prabhu said South Indian films&#39; remake was not a new phenomenon in Bollywood. &quot;Remakes were earlier as well, it is not a new trend. South films are made here and vice versa. They are working is a good sign. Now everyone is working together,&quot; he said. Prabhu is happy with the response his latest released romantic film has received. &quot;We are happy with the response to the film and Girish. He is a surprise package and we are happy audience have accepted him,&quot; he said. Meanwhile, Prabhu is excited to have teamed up with Shahid Kapoor for &quot;Rambo Rajkumar&quot;. This film also stars Sonakshi Sinha. The director is all praise for Shahid for his another forthcoming film &quot;Phata Poster Nikhla Hero&quot;. &quot;Shahid looks amazing in this film and I am looking forward to see it,&quot; Prabhu said. &quot;Phata Poster Nikhla Hero&quot; is an upcoming romantic comedy film starring Shahid and Ileana D&#39;Cruz. Directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, the film is releasing on September 20.u00a0
